Celebrating our GOOD WORK AND Successes
Christmas Giving 2024 - Christmas Shoe Box Appeal

It was wonderful for our children to be helping other children in need around the world to enjoy Christmas.

We supported the Operation Christmas Child UK - Samaritans Purse Appeal by sending donations of shoeboxes filled with items such as toys, personal care items, school supplies, and fun gifts. In doing this, we are helping to teach children about generosity and compassion for others, and giving them the opportunity to do something practical, yet so simple, that can make such a difference. Thank you for your support.
